Has anyone tried the Trig cruiser?
Yes it dies so quick, damage is amazing thou.
Man. So these things are just as bad as they seem on paperā¦ Are we getting the ānerfedā version of the Trig cruisers akin to the CONCORD ships?
The frig is pretty decent and I think the cruiser might be pretty decent in pvp, but that thing is going to melt quickly if it was shield Id see it doing a lot better thou, then it could at least buffer + speed fit.
you guys lovin on the gila are in for a big suprise when the next triglavian structure enters the abyssā¦
This is horribly depressing. I was hoping there would at least be some incentive to theory craft something other than drones and missiles.
There might be a way with sniping fits and mwd thou so not all hope is lost, the muninn with arty sort of worked well, but triglavian frigās moving 3.5km/s are going to rape it guess it dependās on the random spawn.
Kitey Zealot should technically do really well but havnt tried yet, if the zealot had more speed it would be fine in these siteās, the no drone bay + limited midās for web is scary thou against frigās lol.
You mean the one that makes droneās weaker ? the command something? Iām sure you can just stay out of its range thou.
What about the anti-missile structures? Have they made an appearance yet?
Thatās the tower that does aoe damage, it hurts your missiles if they dont fly fast enough, I think.
With these ā ā ā ā Trig ships, I still have no idea how they managed to best any of the Drifters in engagementsā¦
Well the npcās use the trig shipās well lol they are a lot harder to fight than the drifterās, maybe we need to plate the crap out of the trig cruiser and try it that way, with maybe 1 active rep to repair between waves.
the triglavian ships are much much harder to defeat than the drifters. i suggest you test some more now that their full functionality is coming into play
Did anyone get down to trying a Phantasm in these sites yet? Iāve been theory crafting fits but cannot get onto the test server due to absence / test mirror etc.
Iād be really curious to know how well the Phantasm fares as well. I watched a YouTube video not that long ago that featured a polarized Zealot, but I suspect with all the recent NPC additions and changes itās no longer viable (still, it looked like a riot!)
You can update your skills and have your subcaps move to the testing system.
I havenāt gotten to that point yet. There are some AB fits though that may work, especially the 100MN instead of 10MN, but then you get other limitations, weāll see.
I dontāt know, Iām having a pretty good time in a Munin, though different fits for different weathers etc. both arty and autocannon seem to do well.
Got a couple of really nice Cerberus fits as well.
My blaster boats did terrible above tier 2, just canāt close in with the battleships, and I havenāt had a chance to try rails yet.
The ship I am most disappointed with so far though, is Sacrilege, I thought it would do way better for these sites cause of the real nice built-in tank. But I guess not.
I tried just fitting one, and there is simply no way. Not enough space for tracking. Period. I needed heaps of tracking on my Autocannon boat, was at 80+ and a T2 web and still had a hard time hitting the drones. Had to fly to string them, and if I have to do that then might as well switch and take em all out long range with artys instead. Donāt need tracking when theyāre flying straight at you and you can hit BSes from range too.
Were you able to try a beam fit for the Phant or just pulses? Either way thanks for the update, as above has posted were gonna need a variety of ships but hopefully lasers get some love in the sites.
